Suzie and Steven had always been together. How could it be otherwise, they were twins.
“Steven, I’m hungry.”
“We’re almost there.”
One thing the twins had in common was their lack of interest in moving anywhere quickly. Eventually they arrived where Steven had intended.
Suzie’s eyes scanned the scene, “This is great. There’s two peas in a pod, one for each of us.”
Each chose a pea and started to enjoy their simple meal, slowly as usual. Neither had seen the approaching danger.
Crunch!
A booming voice was heard as Steven and his sister died, “I just squashed two more snails in the vegies, dad.”

No! Not the snail massacre! What an interesting twist.

Thanks for the comment.
Poor snails but no one speaks out for the peas in the pod. 🙂
